Workforce is a suite of tools for field data collection for use in challenging environments. Most of our users are people working in disaster related crises. Quickly collecting reliable information after a disaster – especially following a disaster such as a hurricane or large earthquake – is the critical link in the recovery process. Understanding the population’s needs is often neglected for lack of quick means to gather and analyze this crucial information. Workforce is a suite of tools for data collection and analysis in emergencies and other challenging environments and was built to work offline to address this gap.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Workforce Group at 5.0 against TrueContext's 2.3. The Workforce Group also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.1 vs 18.0). TrueContext's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (58 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
